Former Rooster Teeth Contributor David Dreger Found Dead

David "Knuckles Dawson" Dreger, an ex-contributor at Rooster Teeth, was found dead recently in Ambleside Park in West Vancouver. Dreger went missing in late May, and his family set up a Facebook group to help assist in the search for him. A message from his family was posted on the page yesterday:

"We are thankful that the prayers for discovery made by everyone during this time have been answered. It is with deep sadness that we must let you all know that David's body was discovered on June 20 near Ambleside Park. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their prayers, support and compassion. David was an exceptional, bright, caring and loving young man. We consider ourselves blessed to have had him in our lives, and are comforted knowing that he is now embraced in the arms of our Lord.

Love, Daryl, LeeAnn and Danielle."

Within Rooster Teeth, Dreger was probably best known for his work on the Achievement Hunters YouTube video series. Dreger was declared missing when his bike and helmet were discovered in Stanley Park. Dreger had previously closed down his Twitter and Xbox Live accounts prior to being declared missing.

Our thoughts and condolences are with the friends and family of David Dreger.

This is terrible news, I hope his family can take some time to do whatever they need to do. Apparently they are Christian, hopefully their faith can help them through this, it seems to make it a lot more peaceful from the statement they released.

Years ago, I was matchmade into a game of Grifball with Knuckles and I remember being so excited just because I knew who he was. I've always been a huge fan of Rooster Teeth and he was a major part of that community. I wish there was something I could do to help.
